those door sills are the only thing I find ugly and also the rear spoiler... the more and more I see of the limited the more I lean towards the premium.

They put it in the bottom of a CLOSED center console.

I'll probably remove the console and route an extension USB cable through there. Easy enough, but should have been thought about beforehand.


Just use the BT instead of cable if you want to play music off your iPod/iPhone. Problem solved.

Sigh... I can't win lol.

I think my dream BRZ would be the premium with the HVAC/keyless. No spoiler, no button filled steering wheel. No need for leather, etc.

Probably looking towards premium unless limited's relatively cheap.

I agree. I just want the dual zone hvac and push start in my BRZ.

It's like u can't get what u want. Same thing on the frs. Just let me add push start and hids.

Damn, this pic set seems to have been the tipping point for me...

I am getting a BRZ, NOT an FR-S.


Until something convinces me otherwise...

Glad I could help you out there.

Its still all up in the air for me untill pricing is released. Although I am loving all these options in the BRZ.
